Murdered to Death, Thursday 19th May 2016 7:45pm to Saturday 21st May 2016 7:45pm
The second offering in the year of murder and mystery by Thurrock Courts Players sees the
bungling Inspector Pratt attempt to solve the mysterious murder of Mildred Bagshot at her country
estate. Suspects include Dorothy, Mildred’s niece and companion; Bunting the doddery old butler;
the pompous Colonel Craddock and his wife; the very well-to-do Miss Hartley-Trumpington and
shady French art dealer Pierre Marceau. Unably assisted by local sleuth Miss Maple, can the
Inspector solve the crime before everyone else meets their doom? Or will the audience die
laughing first?
Prices – Adults £12 Students £10

The Proclaimers, Orchard Theatre Dartford, Sunday 22nd May 7:30pm
Strikingly individual, twin brothers Craig and Charlie Reid have over the years enjoyed huge
successes across the globe and in April last year released their 10th album on the Cooking Vinyl
label.
They have carved a niche for themselves where pop, folk, new wave and punk, collide as the
emotional honesty, political fire, wit and singalong raucousness of their songs and their extensive
touring has enlightened and entertained fans new and old. Also you will hear classics like (I’m
Gonna Be) 500 Miles, and more.
